Everything to know about WWE NXT star Wendy Choo
WWE NXT 2.0 star Wendy Choo has caught the eye of the WWE Universe with her unique new gimmick.
Choo, real-name Karen Yu, made her re-debut in early 2022. She teamed up with Indi Hartwell & Persia Pirotta in a six-woman tag team bout against Amari Miller, Kacy Catanzaro & Kayden Carter. Before the match, Choo appeared in a backstage segment wearing pajamas, looking like she'd just woken up from a nap. Later during the bout, Choo curled up in her corner to rest on a pillow. She even laid down in the middle of the ring for a little nap while being the legal competitor.
Choo's new "sleepy" gimmick became a topic of social media discussion ever since her re-debut on NXT 2.0. Now that she's an NXT 2.0 regular, here's everything you need to know about WWE Superstar Wendy Choo:
Hailing from Queens, New York, Wendy Choo has been a part of WWE since 2018. She made her debut by entering the 2018 Mae Young Classic, as she lost to Xia Li in the first round.

Choo's first singles victory under her new gimmick was against Amari Miller. The fast-rising NXT star seems more adapted to tag team wrestling at the moment as she's been highly successful teaming up with a partner.
On the latest episode of WWE NXT 2.0, Choo teamed up with Dakota Kai. The two seemed to be on the same page as they defeated Indi Hartwell & Persia Pirotta to advance to the next round of the Dusty Classic.
